Hi Peter,

The Superb Starling is so different from the Starlings we see here. I love the way this one is posing for you. Beautiful colors - the white eye is a big contrast to the dark head. He looks wonderful in this natural setting.

But seriously, mate, I kinda love this one, for the simplicity and perfection in this shot, apart from the star of the shot, of course.

Hello Peter,
Though we have seen the Superb Starling several times on TN, I can't get tired of seeing this striking bird. Here you have caught in a fine pose and taken it from a great POV with fine sharpness, lighting, contrast against the grassy BG and set it in a good composition.
Thanks for displaying this beauty and have a good weekend,

Hallo Peter
Superb butler lookalike bird. It surely looks as if this bird is wearing a tailor made suite and all dressed up for the occasion, and standing all rigid and upright. The variation of “strong” colours of this birds plumage is remarkable and displays very well. I like the divisions of different colours on the plumage. It is almost like a puzzle fitting into one another just at the right place. The white eye against the black head feathers are also very striking. A lovely bird which you captured in a great pose. I like how the bird’s head is tilted slightly sideways; it looks as if it is listening to something. Thanks for sharing.
Best regards

Merhaba Peter,
Bu karenizi görmediğim için yorumsuz geçmişim. Ama gerçekten dikkat çeken çok hoş bir kuş karesi.
Canlı renkleri ve kusursuz ince ayrıntılarıyla zekle izlenen bir çalışma. Emeğine sağlık.

I like how you've caught it here showing off it's gorgeous colors from its breast plumage.
Very nice exposure and natural contrast, too.
